Various types of anatomical landmarks of the face should match its proportions with the size of the teeth which is the interalar width, intercomissural width, interpupillary width, Intercanthal width, and byzigomatic width. Some of face landmarks can be used as a guide in the selection of anterior teeth in complete denture, especially if the pre extraction record such as radiography image, extracted teeth, model study, the remaining teeth, face shape, and the shape of the curved jaw have been lost. The objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation between interalar width and intercommisural width against mesiodistal incisivus centralis width in a group of Buginese tribe. Ninety nine Buginese tribe subjects aged 17-25 were selected. The interalar width, intercommisural width, and mesiodistal incisor centralis teeth were measured using caliper about three times for accuracy and precision. Mean of interalar width and mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla width in males more width than females (p<0.05), and intercommisural width in females more width than males (p>0.05). The degree of correlation between interalar width against mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla width was 0.030, -0.246, 0,225 in Buginese tribe, males, and females (p>0.05). : The degree of correlation between intercommisural width against  mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla width in Buginese tribe was 0,054, 0,013, 0,153 in Buginese tribe, males, and females (p>0.05). The degree of correlation between interalar width and intercommisural width was 0.301 and 0.356 in Buginese tribe and males (p<0.05), and 0,281 in females (p>0.05). In conclusion, there is no significant correlation between interalar width and intercommisural width against mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla width in a group of Buginese tribe. Interalar width and intercommisural width  directly proportional to mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla in a group of Buginese tribe. Interalar width and intercommisural width  inversely proportional to mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla in males and directly inversely in females.

Introduction: Selection of appropriately sized maxillary denture teeth in various types of arch form is often a challenging aspect during complete denture rehabilitation. The correlation of facial anatomical landmarks may serve as a reliable predictor for the selection of teeth. Materials and methods: The maxillary arch impression of 113 dentate subjects were made, casts poured and divided into square, ovoid and tapering arch form. The position of tip of maxillary canines in relation to commissure of mouth and midpupillary line were determined by using vacuum formed template and pupillometer respectively. Results: The result showed the significant difference in mean distance from commissural to canine tip (p<0.001) and IPD (p<0.017) among square, ovoid and tapering arch form. Conclusion: The commissure of lip may serve as a reliable guideline for selection of anterior teeth according to arch form and IPD/ICW can similarly be used to determine anterior teeth width.

AbstractAn altered facial appearance is more difficult to face, than problems related to ill-fitting denture or eating. The selection of maxillary anterior teeth for complete denture has long posed problem in clinical practice and a controversy about the best method to employ still exists. An attempt is made in the present study to clinically correlate the face form with maxillary central incisor tooth form in males and females of Davangere population. In 1914, Leon William's projected the “the form method” where he classified facial forms as square, tapering, and ovoid. Maxillary central incisors were selected according to the facial forms.Of total 100 subjects four different tooth forms and face forms were evaluated. They are: square, ovoid, square-tapered, tapered. No significant correlation existed between face form in male and females. Females exhibited greater correlation between face forms and inverted tooth form but that correlation is not sufficient to serve as a guide for selection of anterior teeth.

Structure of the anterior teeth after endodontic treatment usually become weak because of the extensive loss of toothstructure. It causes a big problem to an endodontically treatment tooth when considering its restoration, examplereduced strength of the remaining tooth structure. Restoration that covers the tooth crown can be used if aesthetic andfunctional problems factors have been considered. However, composite resins are also often the treatment of choice forthe restoration of endodontically treated tooth. In this literature review, it will be discussed the selection of the properrestoration of the anterior teeth that have been endodontically treated.

The preservation of healthy dental structures contributes to the practice of a conservative dentistry. This concept involves the implementation of biological and mechanical principles in a more predictable manner. Minimally invasive cavity preparations are the complement to the selection of adhesive and composite resin materials. The correct application of an adhesive protocol will provide imperceptible aesthetic restorations and adequate clinical performance.
